Tavion Wallace, a four-star prospect and top-100 junior in the country, was at the Gator Bowl on Friday to cheer on his older brother, Kentucky linebacker Trevin Wallace. The younger Wallace sibling posted plenty of pictures to his social media during his time at the game, all while rocking Trevin’s No. 32 Kentucky jersey.

Over on his Instagram page, Wallace posted pictures with Kentucky 2024 linebacker signee Devin Smith, current running back Ray Davis, and former Wildcat defensive end Josh Allen, who is now starring for the Jacksonville Jaguars.

It was his picture with Smith that caught our eye though. Wallace captioned it with “Teammates?” and “BBN wussup”. Both of the high schoolers are from Georgia.

For those unaware, Wallace is one of the top recruits in the entire country. The 6-foot-1, 200-pound linebacker is considered the No. 45 prospect and No. 5 overall linebacker from the 2025 class, according to the On3 Industry Ranking. He’s committed to play in the 2025 All-American Bowl.

Wallace is being heavily recruited by some of the nation’s top programs. The Jesup (GA) Wayne County product released a top six schools list earlier this month that included Florida State, Georgia, Louisville, Kentucky, Auburn, and LSU. The Wildcats reached out with an offer back in Nov. 2022.

Although’s Trevin time at Kentucky wrapped up following the Gator Bowl (he’s off to the 2024 NFL Draft), his success in Lexington certainly won’t hurt the Wildcats’ odds of landing Tavion down the road.
